Omega3 is becoming more important every day. Sales of canned oil rich fish are actually increasing now that consumers are getting the message. Omega3 supplements are gaining in usage as well but did you know that compared to Millionnaires Brisling Sardines, most supplements contain very small amounts of Omega3.

There is striking new evidence that regularly eating fish such as tuna and salmon can prevent heart attacks in the growing legions of people living with heart disease.

Two separate studies, to be published today, show that consuming fish and fish oils can cut the risk of arrhythmia and sudden heart attacks by more than half. (Arrhythmia is characterized by sudden changes in heartbeat, and it ca provoke heart attacks and stroke.)

And a third, unrelated research paper suggest that pregnant women and nursing mothers can prevent postpartum depression and improve the neurological development of their babies by increasing their fish consumption.

The common thread is omega-3 fatty acids, polyunsaturated fat which is commonly found in fish. A general rule is that the darker the fish meat, the better it is for the heart. Tuna, salmon, sardines, swordfish and mackerel are examples of fish that are particularly rich in omega-3 fatty acids; they are also found in algae.

The Heart & Stoke Foundation of Canada recommends that people eat at lease two to three servings of fish a week.

Research published in today’s edition of the New England Journal of Medicine by Christine Albert of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, found that people living with heart disease who consume that much fish will reduce their risk of sudden heart attack by more than half. That is because omega-3 has anti-arrhythmia properties, meaning it helps keep the heartbeat stable.

In addition to cutting the risk of heart attack, omege-3 fatty acids are believed to reduce the risk of long-term heart disease, breast and prostate cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, depression and even the likelihood of giving birth prematurely.
